Passwordless authentication emerges as a calculated response, eliminating the inherent weaknesses of conventional passwords.

The average user has an overwhelming 227 accounts that require a password, making it unrealistic to expect anyone not using a password manager to be able to adequately secure and manage their digital lives.

Businesses are ready to embrace a passwordless future, with 92% having a plan to move to passwordless technology and 95% currently using a passwordless experience at their organization.

Password security remains highly relevant even as cybersecurity strategies move toward a passwordless future.

The results are clear passwords have outrun their course and it's time to provide users a simpler, more secure way to validate their identity.

With more digital services available than ever, consumers are actually struggling to recall an ever-growing inventory of password credentials, with 51% of respondents resetting a password at least once a month because they can't remember it.
